WATERFRONT STUDIO COZY WITH WATERVIEWs

Four floors up on Indian Creek Drive, this studio faces the waterway rather than the street, catching morning light off the water from a north Miami Beach block quieter than Collins Avenue two blocks east.

The unit works as a self-contained base rather than a full-service hotel stay: kitchenette, no daily housekeeping, guests handle their own linens midweek.

Indian Creek's paved path suits runners and cyclists; the nearest grocery is a six-minute walk south, and the beach itself is roughly ten minutes on foot.
